Yup, you have read it right! IM+ Pro, formally $39.99, has dropped in price to $9.99 and IM+ Talk, formally $29.99, has dropped in price to $9.99. Both apps are on Mobihand and Appworld for just 10 bucks! This is huge! For all of you out there that have AIM, Google Talk, Skype, Yahoo Messenger, MSN, Jabra... This is a must get all-in-one messaging app.

Voice and text communication from BlackBerry handheld with other Skype users and cost-effective calling to landlines and mobiles all over the world. No huge data traffic for calls! Now with free VoIP calls in WiFi zones and over 3G/EDGE networks!

IM+ Talk works worldwide in any 3G/GSM/CDMA network and is not dependent on WiFi zones.

Enjoy high quality of voice communication - clear sound, no extra delays even for long-distance calls!

Skype Credit tariffs to landlines and mobiles are different and in most cases calling to mobile is much more expensive than calling to landlines. You can enter several landline numbers (they can be the phone numbers of a friend you came to visit, or even a phone number of a local restaurant) in the Call Back field in IM+ Talk and the call will be forwarded to the number you indicate.

IMO, Trillian is better, plus its cheaper. Sure, there may be a couple of connection problems, but the UI is MUCH cleaner.

I tried the demo of this app and wasn't impressed at all. The Skype functionality is a joke. It is like talking on a walkie talkie and it takes ages. When you send someone a voice note, he has to actually open a link in his browser to listen to it. What are we in the 1990's?

Just my 2 cents.

Problem is, unless you are with Verizon (lucky me), this is most likely the best alternative for now.
